This might be as good as we can do given the nature of the list, but...

Okay gang, there seems to be a question as to what we think should be the
priority for supplements. Here's a quick survey. Please respond. The more
responses, the more information Jon has to work with. Please respond only
once, and respond honestly.

Important Note: PLEASE RESPOND TO ME ONLY! MY E-MAIL ADDRESS IS:
agoodall@sympatico.ca

I will coallate the answers and send them to Jon as one big bundle. I will
post the response total to the mailing list within one week. This way we can
keep the traffic down on the list and anyone who wants anonymity can have it
(I promise I won't tell). Also, it's more valid if we don't influence each
other with our answers/opinions.

If everyone feels they should be on the mailing list in general, I'll post
them after the survey is taken, but I will NOT post them while the survey is
being conducted.

SURVEY

Given that the next GZG supplement will be the long awaited Full Thrust Fleet
Book (with the new design system and some of the new Full Thrust, 3rd Edition
rules as per Jon's recent post)...

Question #1: Please rank the following in terms of the order you would like to
see their appearance. For instance, if you want to see Full Thrust, 3rd
Edition first, Bugs Don't Surf second, and Blood and Thunder third, you would
say, "#1 Full Thrust, #2 Bugs Don't Surf, #3 Blood and Thunder".

The supplements are:

Full Thrust, 3rd Edition - New version of FT. Includes new ship design
system, new weapons, optional vector movement rules, scenarios, campaign
rules, and "maybe even a counter sheet for little stuff like vector markers,
missiles, debris etc..."

Bugs Don't Surf - Supplement for Dirtside II and Stargrunt 2. Includes
alien rules for SG2 and DS2, and scenarios. Perhaps it might include a
campaign system, predesigned vehicles, and a little bit more background stuff.

Blood and Thunder - A generic fantasy game using the FMA system. The
system will allow battles from skirmishes up to army clashes.

Question #2: How badly do you want these supplements (please respond with
"want it immediately", "want it within 6 months", "want it within a year",
"want it this century", "want it whenever Jon gets it done", "don't want it")?
Note that this is in no way a measure of Jon's ability or willingness to
produce these supplements. It is only a measure of when you would like to see
the supplement. It is perfectly okay to answer "want it immediately" to all
three, even though this is patently impossible for Jon to accomplish.:

Full Thrust, 3rd Edition Bugs Don't Surf Blood and Thunder

Question #3: Regardless of what you said for question #1, are you likely to
buy any of these supplements, assuming that they are priced reasonably (please
answer "yes, sight unseen", "very likely", "somewhat likely", "somewhat
unlikely", "very unlikely", "no, I won't be buying it")?:

Full Thrust, 3rd Edition Bugs Don't Surf Blood and Thunder

Question #4: Do you currently own one of the following games (please answer
"yes, I own it", "no, but I'm buying it within 6 months", "no, but I'd like to
try it some time", "no, but I've been looking for it and can't find
it",
"no, the subject doesn't interest me", "no, I tried it and didn't like
it",
"other"--with a short explanation)?:

Full Thrust Dirtside II Stargrunt 2

Question #5a: Regardless of your answer to question #4, do you currently play
any of the following games (please answer "frequently", "often",
"infrequently", "once", "never"):

Full Thrust Dirtside II Stargrunt 2

Question #5b: If you answered "infrequently", "once", or "never" to #5a, why
don't you play more often (please answer "didn't like it", "can't find
players", "can't afford the rules and/or miniatures", "can't find the
rules for sale", "can't find suitable miniatures for sale", "doesn't interest
me",
"other"--for other, please specify?):
